A METHOD AND AN APPARATUS FOR ADAPTING NETWORK CHARACTERISTICS IN A TELECOMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM

摘要

Methods in a network node, such as a radio base station (RBS) node or a radio network control (RNC) node, for adapting network characteristics in a telecommunications system are provided. A plurality of entities indicative of the performance of the network are measured simultaneously, by means of a single table, and one entity is selected as main entity. The measurements are stored within main entity ranges and a correlation of the measurements is performed to determine a relationship among the entities with main entity range(s). The result(s) of the correlation is used to adapt network characteristics for optimizing the network. Related network nodes are also discussed.
